Trouble in the Workplace

But what if you are experiencing feelings of discomfort due to actions that fall within the cracks. Such as inappropriate language or jokes of a sexual or racist nature? Perhaps your boss is asking you to handle tasks in a way that you know border on the not quite right side of an issue or even down right illegal. And he/she makes it clear that you are expected to do as you are instructed.Is the accepted culture of your company making you feel isolated? Do you get "punished" for not attending company social functions? These and many other situations sometime make it difficult to stay in a company. There is often no workable solutio
